Summer X-Scitement! Contact: tsmithpa@stfx.ca REGISTRATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED UNTIL BEGINNING OF EACH CAMP. Deadlines are for T-shirt orders only.

The X-Chem Outreach Program is proud to offer the return of our ever popular Chemistry and Science Camps! The summer X-SCITEMENT series will consist of both chemistry and science camps as well as two Codemaker camps and an All Girls science camp. All camps are hosted by X-Chem and take place in a lab (chemistry or computer) at St. Francis Xavier University.

Elements, Atoms and Molecules will be exposed to exciting chemistry demos as well as conduct hands on experiments that will capture your imagination! Codemaker campers will take a look at the inner workings of computers and programming.Trail Blazer, Adventure and Discovery groups will be exploring the worlds of chemistry, biology, physics, geology, engineering and much more! This year all of the activities will be different from those done last year!

Each camp is geared towards the specified age groups with challenges varying from beginner to advanced. Campers can be registered in the camps for the grade which they are going into, ie. a child finishing Grade 2 should be enrolled in a Grade 3-4 camp. Exceptions can be made, within reason.

*Camps run from 9am-3pm. Early drop off (8:00am) and/or late pick up (4:00 pm) can be arranged for an additional $5.00/hour.*

*Registration will be completed through New Glasgow Recreation. Total price including Tshirt is $75 or $55 respectively.

X-Chem will also be hosting camps for Aboriginal students!
